Hand Woven Pentacle 8mm Gemstone
1.25" Sterling Silver Prices range from $55.00 - $81.00
A personal note about these handcrafted Sterling Silver talismanic jewelry pieces: In 1985 e.v. we met Fred and Jill of Magi Crafts and were very impressed with their sterling silver pentacles, many with bezel-set with smooth cabachon gemstones or prong-set faceted jewels. These magickal pieces were carefully and lovingly woven by them and their best trained assistants. The care they took to work during the phases of the Moon best suited for the intentions of each piece was very important to us. One weekend we joined them on the roof of their studio for a Lunar blessing of all the pieces that had been made from the time Diana's Bow could be seen in the night sky through the Full of the Moon. This was powerful Witchcraft and Richard and I were honored to represent this company. We became the exclusive wholesale distributors of this collection for decades, providing these light- filled pentacles and amulets to stores across America so that they could find their way into many neighborhoods of Spiritual seekers. The collection has long been retired and these are what we have to provide While Supplies Last...

The Pentacle signifies the rulership of Higher Mind over the lower elements of Human Nature. The use of this Divine Symbol signals the awakening of Cosmic Consciousness and the Initiation of Human Consciousness manipulating its environment by reaching beyond the realms of physical form and perception limited to the five physical senses. The origins of the Pentagram go far back to remotest antiquity, as far back as Pre-Babylonian Sumer. I has been venerated by many other civilizations. To the Jews, it symbolically designated the Pentateuch, The five Books of Moses. Early Christians recognized it as pointing out the five Stigmata - the wounds Christ suffered on the Cross. It has survived under a variety of titles, including "The Druid's Foot" and "The Witch's Star".
To the followers of Pythagoras, it was called "The Pentalpha", being composed of five interlaced A's or Alphas. With Alpha being the center of the Greek alphabet, we can view the Pentacle as symbolically portraying the Unity of All things in the midst of multiplicity. Ceremonial Magicians throughout the Middle Ages considered the Pentagram to be among the most potent and protective symbols - being stronger in this way, than even the Cross. Those involved in Occult Practices could be certain that wherever the Pentacle was displayed, there, evil had not power.Traditionally, each of the five angles has been attributed to the Five Metaphysical Elements of the Ancients:Earth (Lower left-hand corner), Fire (Lower right-hand corner), Water (Upper right -hand corner), Air (Upper left-hand corner) - Surmounted by Spirit at the topmost point.
This becomes a graphic portrayal of Spirit ruling over the four elements and when the Pentagram is placed within the Circle (a symbol of eternity and totality or unity) its energy is focused and directed.
